While pregnancy discrimination has been litigated under both, these laws establish different forms of equality. Formal equality requires equal treatment of pregnant women in the workplace, and substantive equality requires the worker's needs to be accommodated by the employer. Drawing from a unique database of 1,112 cases, Deardorff and Dahl discuss how courts have addressed pregnancy through these two different approaches to equality. The authors explore the implications for gender equality and the evolution of how pregnancy and pregnancy-related conditions in employment can be addressed by employers. 606 $aPolitical planning 606 $aPolitical science 606 $aSex 606 $aEurope$xPolitics and government 606 $aSocial policy 606 $aPublic Policy 606 $aPolitical Science 606 $aGender Studies 606 $aEuropean Politics 606 $aSocial Policy 615 0$aPolitical planning. 615 0$aPolitical science. 615 0$aSex. 615 0$aEurope$xPolitics and government. 615 0$aSocial policy. 615 14$aPublic Policy. 615 24$aPolitical Science. 615 24$aGender Studies. 615 24$aEuropean Politics. 615 24$aSocial Policy. 676 $a344.7301/4133 686 $aPOL029000$aPOL040030$aSOC028000$2bisacsh 700 $aDeardorff$b Michelle D$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0787619 702 $aDahl$b James G$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910255326803321 996 $aPregnancy Discrimination and the American Worker$92517952 997 $aUNINA
